ARCHITECTUREFIRM: How to Lead the Design of Award-winning Projects (w/ Adam Ruffin)

Your firm can’t deliver incredible projects without a great team working in the wings. Building and leading a team is an art form in and of itself. It requires transparency, setting clear milestones, and providing room for talent to grow. Adam Ruffin is doing just that with his two partners at ARCHITECTUREFIRM, a small design firm that is split between two locations and adeptly managing remote work. Adam shared how they are creating a unified vision while being physically separated, how he approaches leadership, and the steps they’re taking to develop a formative culture while growing the business.Interview TakeawaysLearn to do things at a small scale firstDevelop one office voiceSave costs with tech toolsQuestion iterationLet the sense of place shineHire people you like and give them room to growWork with a business directorSpread company information however you canForm partnerships with vetting and teamworkTake initiative if you want to move upCreate normal tiers for growthExplain the process to clients and use feedbackShow LinksCheck out ARCHITECTUREFIRMFollow ARCHITECTUREFIRM on LinkedIn or TwitterConnect with Adam Ruffin on LinkedIn or TwitterConnect with George Valdes on LinkedIn or TwitterCheck out MonographFollow Monograph on LinkedIn or InstagramListen and read more about Monograph
